PCI X question

"PCI-X not only increases the speed of the PCI bus but also the number of high-speed slots. With the current design, PCI slots run at 33MHz and one slot can run at 66 MHz. PCI-X doubles the current performance of standard PCI, supporting one 64-bit slot at 133MHz, for an aggregate throughput of 1 GBps. The new specification also features an enhanced protocol to increase the efficiency of data transfer and to simplify electrical timing requirements, an important factor at higher clock frequencies."

Q: Is that one slot that runs double the speed of the rest used for the AGP? Or is the AGP a separate connection from the PCI?
